Use the library function `__djgpp_set_ctrl_c'.  When called with a zero 
argument, it will disable generation of SIGINT by ^C; with a non-zero 
argument, it enables it.  C-Break still generates SIGINT even when ^C is 
not.  When you switch stdin to binary mode, this is done automatically.  
Shouldn't you use binary reads on stdin in an Emacs-like editor?  You can 
use `setmode' library function to do this.
